Canceled | The AutoBill is no longer actively granting service. It has been canceled due to user, merchant, or system action—for example, the customer has opted out of recurring billing or canceled the service; you have called cancel on the AutoBill object or stopAutoBilling on the Account object; or if a chargeback is received against a transaction generated by the AutoBill object. Canceled is a terminal and permanent status. The Billing condition of this AutoBill is clarified by the current Billing State. Note that the customer who owns the AutoBill object is entitled until the AutoBill’s end-date.
